This isn't very accurate. Antonius accepted durrrr's challenge in early 2009 and the 50K hands are just a little over halfway complete. http://www.fulltiltpok

The others lining up are still waiting.
I don't follow online hs poker that much, but I think durrrr is far from the unbeatable icon the article portrays. He gets plenty of action online outside of his challenge which suggests many do consider him beatable. Looking at the highstakespokerdb.com stats, it appears he finished up around 6 million in 2008 and is now down nearly 6 million in 2009 (not all to Isildur, presumably).
In turn, Isildur is down nearly 3 million in the past 24 hours alone (after this article was published, which listed his total winnings as "well over 5M"). With variance like that it is way too early to tell how lasting the effects of his successes this week will be.
- Devilboy 17y agoThe $6m is almost all to Isildur1.
- basugasubaku 17y agoDoes this mean before Isildur1 arrived he was just about breaking even for 2009? In any case, my primary objection is that defeating durrr over two weeks does not mean "He has cemented his name in the annals of online poker as one of the strongest players of all time."
